Syntax

CARETPD(value)

Value

nnnn

Numeric (0-9999). Number of days to retain the output change accumulation data set.

Error
Warning

If you use CARETPD(0) with dynamic allocation, you could lose your output change accumulation data sets. In most installations, a retention period of zero indicates that the output tape is a work tape that can be overwritten immediately. Your installation’s standards for CARETPD(0) may differ.

When you use dynamic allocation and you do not specify CARETPD or CAEXPDT, your installation’s standards for retention period apply.

Default

None
